Christmas Around the World

December 1, 2017

December has arrived! So has the summer heat here in Sydney! I am happy to report I have a good handle on my Christmas shopping thanks to a little online shopping this week, now I just need to wait for the boxes to arrive so I can wrap. Wrapping is totally my favourite activity in the lead up to Christmas, this weekend the Christmas tree is going up and I am pulling out all the Christmas cards I have made to see how many more I need to make.

Today, I am sharing my card for the 9th round of 12 weeks of Christmas. This week Barbara (aka mum) and I are showcasing “Christmas Around the World DSP” in all the past we have only showcased stamp sets in our 12 weeks of Christmas series, but this week we are highlighting a printed paper with our choice of stamp set. It was harder then I thought it would be to use manly paper and at about 3 am this morning when I really needed to get a card finished I decided to case a card I made a few months ago, see the original card HERE.

I wanted a little more of a vintage and worn feel, so I lightly sanded the printed paper. It looks really good in real life (I promise).
